How about this

My wifi (Not even full + Skype call + Netflix running ) I get about same as your 4g

My 4g is more like 3g hell it's like 1x
[Sprint LG Optimus G] foxsdaddy67:
I used to have the moment. That thing couldn't hold a signal or keep data without modem locking up. Was always rebooting that damn phone. That soured me on Samsung phones
[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Compare to another phone. Maybe sprint is having issues.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bizzshow26:
How close were you to a tower because I only see signal that good when I'm within a quarter of a tower any further I show no bars or 2 max, and not to sound argumentative but a speed test shows very little I've gotten 20mbs with zero bars showing

And I think sprint is having issues on your end
[Sprint LG Optimus G] genaro12543:
I don't know where the tower is but it was a pretty good 4g area and you getting 20 with no signal doesn't prove anything the signal bars just don't properly show the signal obviously

At my house the 4g is really really weak like .5 down but its a good sign of things to come. I can't wait cuz my WiFi is only 1.5 down haha
[Sprint LG Optimus G] bizzshow26:
That was my point the signal bars are broken I know at home I get between 4-13 with lte and WiFi between 6-20 MBS I just want this phone to pick up lte correctly and not drive past a known sprint tower then another 3 miles before this phone switches to lte. Or forcing it to connect using airplane mode
[Sprint LG Optimus G] j404:
Any updates on the original topic? When are we going to get the beans?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Chyrio:
The gnex has a horrible radio my gf has one I'm sitting right next to her and getting a MB more down than her.

[Sprint LG Optimus G] xboxfanj:
Blame Verizon. They don't use Qualcomm modems anymore so Google and Samsung had to use via for both which is way worse. Google and Samsung used the same modem on sprint for ease and less needed resources and changes to the existing Verizon source.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Chyrio:
In complete agreeance my man. That's the primary reason I left my nexus. I mean there were days I couldn't load a 320 x 320 picture in less than a minute. But my optimus is better in every way accept 4.2 of course

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
Hi guys!

I've got a Xpera Sola a couple of months ago, and it keeps random freezing and rebooting quite frequently,

at a time base of a dozen times a day, which make it unusable.

I've been waiting for new ROMs and hoping for a cure, stock 2.3s, stock 4.0s, and cm9s, but none of them works.

The only difference between stock and cm is stock do HANG/REBOOT but cm just HANG and drain battery.

While lost faith in new ROMs, I tried to figure it out myself, and here is what I found:

No reboot/hang in airplane mode (so it's the radio?)

No reboot/hand when ADB is pluged (so BAD news!)

My configuration:

Bare ROM, no additional apps.

GSM networked SIM card / no SIM card, makes no difference (I have no WCDMA card so can't test)

Wifi / no Wifi, makes no difference (maybe hang more often with Wifi on, but I'm not sure)

SD card (2G) / SD card (4g) / SD card (16G) / NO SD card, makes no difference

CPU governors, no difference

wake lock, wifi lock, accquired with terminal in cm9, still hang

Any feedbacks are welcome, need your help!

Thank you very much!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
some updates:

the problem still there, tried cm to 213 and .54 Italy/China and munjeni's MIUI.

getting hung when using the phone only happened in stock or stock based roms, not in CMs.

stock based roms seemed to have a watch dog to reboot the phone in a 2-5 min interval, but not sure whether it's in kernel or in rom.

guess the hang happened when awaking from deep sleep mode, and no deep sleep no hang (such like when ADB is active and deepsleep disabled).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
forget one thing:

witnessed one hang issue in air plane mode.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
I assume you are on stock ROM, this is not normal. Did you try repairing with PCC?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
you mean PC Companion? No. Cause I unlocked the BL and I assume PC Companion won't treat it.

Thank you for the reply :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mokiwipeout:
there is a tutorial on how to relock bootloader
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
but what's the difference between PCC repair and ftf flash?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Obviously none. Then try to reflash or hard reset.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] branex:
Thank you! :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sihe:
whether the problem was there since the first time you bought it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stiven68:
Have you tried the last SlimFXP + Sliding kernel 3.2?

I had almost your problems, but not so often (hang or reboot every one or two days) and the combination indicated above improved the situation very much.

I'm still testing and it seems quite good: I'm using SmartassV2 governor.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lfrp:
I was trying to remove the cover quickly and I by accident removed a metal contact, as it shows on the pic. anybody knows what is that for? just for NFC? I tried to search online but found not much info on this.

thanks.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] popper668:
its part of your antenna?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bobarune:
I don't think it's for NFC. I believe the one on the bottom left is for NFC. Might be wifi or something else.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lfrp:
I still have the metal contact, does anybody know how I can put it back? Or may be take it to a sprint store to get it fix? But I dont have insurance though.

I haven't notice any problems anyway.

Thanks for any help.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lanlee212:
It looks like the NFC antenna. Shouldn't be much of a issue. Everything should work just fine. If you're signal goes weak or can't get lte then have it fixed it shouldn't be too hard. I could fix it at work in 5 mins.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lfrp:
soldering is the only way to fix this i guess right? Well if I see any future problems, I think is going to be a nice way to start learning how to solder lol.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lanlee212:
Yes but you need a heat gun. A special heat gun or take your phone apart not something to learn on. If you can't surface mount solder already don't try you will do more damage then good. I wouldn't touch some else's phone much less mine to solder that contact. It's in a tricky and hard place to solder. I've been soldering on surface mount for 7 years and don't know if I could do it.

[Galaxy S II General] sam77744:
There are much of comments from frustrated Galaxy S II users that are waiting for Jelly Bean update for their devices.

As we can’t currently confirm the deploy date, we can assure you all that samsung is working hard to bring JB to your devices as soon as possible.

Our insiders which are currently working to provide ROM’s for Samsung devices, confirms that the latest version pushed for internal tests is I9100XXLSX and also our internal contacts hinted that it may be based on Jelly Bean 4.2 (They can’t confirm it 100% as they don’t know which build with be finnaly picked up for public, so it may be 4.1, but hey, it’s still JB).

Stay tunned, as we will gather some more information :) release may be sooner than any of us expect :)

[Galaxy S II General] kmaximax:
gotta love those bad literal translations in the URL..... 'samsung-is-hardly-working' when I went to school 'hardly working' translates to NOT BEING BOTHERED OR NOT ENOUGH (BARELY) working on the update lol :)
[Galaxy S II General] sabianadmin:
Aaannnddd you're done.

Ah so its gonna be released 3 or 4 months ago? People get annoyed with comments like mine, but it in fact serves a dual purpose. If Samsung has any gumption (which is debatable) they would be checking large communities like XDA to get a gauge of their customers level of satisfaction with their products. It also serves to add another negative mark in the public subconscious against Samsung, so fewer people make the mistake of buying Samsung products (especially if they feel it acceptable to treat their customers so flippantly) in future.
[Galaxy S II General] Jomari29:
guys are still waiting?

my patience ran out a month ago,

Jelly Bean 4.2.1
[Galaxy S II General] 3xeno:
In the extremely unlikely event it turns out to be Android 4.2, prepare for waiting a lot more as its illogical Samsung will release 4.2 for the SII before it has done so for its current year devices.
[Galaxy S II General] TheATHEiST:
XDA GS2 users would make up a extremely small percentage of their overall customers of the device. 99% of GS2 users wouldn't have a clue that its possible to even change the OS via ODIN/recovery never mind the OTA updates.
[Galaxy S II General] dud3me:
Exactly. Though, at this point it would do great for their damaged reputation to release 4.2 after all these delays with jb update. Still, I see it as an extremely unlikely scenario.
[Galaxy S II General] Rickydude:
Of course it must be frustrating for all those guys out there who doesn't know or are scared to use modded ROM and Kernels to be always up to date...

I find it hard to believe here on XDA that any of the users would be affraid to do so with all the roms and help available for all the taste!

Already with JB 4.2.1 and lovin' it ;)
[Galaxy S II General] MaKTaiL:
You guys complain about Samsung not releasing updates, but you should note that Samsung is the only company updating devices to Jelly Bean so far. Sony, LG and specially Motorola are still stuck on ICS. I know it is frustrating to wait this long but Samsung is releasing it which is a win by itself.
[Galaxy S II General] jj_95nano:
4.1.1 in November they said. Well awesome. But wait we'll give you 4.1.2, so wait till Jan. Ok, maybe that's better. Hold on, wait again... We'll give you 4.2, why don't you wait till May. Okay great we'll wait till next year and you give us Key Lime Pie once and for all... :p
[Galaxy S II General] mpjoe2000:
People, you don't really get it? do you? is not just an "update" that we are really complaining about, we don't even care if this next update is JB. We are complaining about all bugs & security vulnerabilities that samsung haven't fixed on s2 since they released ICS and of course: the real source code & docs!. I was waiting JB update on my S2 for selling this cheap plastic crappy overvalued phone, but it seems i will have to sell it before. I don't want the next owner of my phone to be so disappointed of this "2011's phone of the year".
[Galaxy S II General] gsoul5005:
Great news.. having JB 4.2 will be great. (seems like i cant post in development thread until i get 10 post counts)

[Galaxy S II General] zavorrax:
R: Have no fear! Samsung is hard working to bring Jelly Bean to Galaxy S II (GT-I9100

the leak is already in good shape. Some delay could be related to the exynos vulnerability, and if this will being us 4.2 will be great!

Buy yes, the real issue is with source code and exynos docs, the lack of which is causing develops to drop S2 development.

[Motorola Droid X2] GlassOfWater:
I am currently running CM10a2.999999999 by DKZ on my Droid X2 and Link2SD (auto link enabled). I have been attempting to run several applications (JetSetRadio and Sword and Sworcery) but both games hang on launch. I have placed the folders that contain the stored .obb files I had prior to flashing to CM10 in /storage/sdcard1/android/obb/. I was wondering if this is an issue with CM10, the unofficial Droid X2 port, the wrong directory or something that I have to do in addition such as linking directories. I appreciate any support given.
[Motorola Droid X2] Lrs121:
Its possible that because the sdcards have been flip flopped you may need to place the obb files in /storage/sdcard0 and the proper underlying directories to get them to function properly. So even though sdcard1 looked like the internal memory its being treated as the external by the rom, and those apps may be using the way the rom was mapped for where to find certain files meaning sdcard0 while looking like the external is actually the internal for the purposes of the way the rom treats them respectively.

You're using Rom Manager. Just download the rom you want from the developer section and use CWR or TWRP to flash it. Rom Manager is way out of date and there isn't any interest from that developer anymore.

[HTC Droid DNA] eriknors:
Ok I know this my fault in doing this but I just wanna know how to fix this. (If there's a way to fix).

So the other day I was poking around and I made the stupid mistake of flashing one of those oversea roms that's non-cdma. Since then I've restored a working rom and several others trying to get my 4g back up and working w/ no luck. I've called verizon thinking maybe they could reformat it for me or do something to reset my connection. That didn't work. I couldn't tell them the obvious so they weren't much help.

They are sending me a new sim card but I just tried my friends 4g lte sim card in my phone and that didn't work either. I'm pretty sure the one being sent wont fix my problem.

I'm stumped on what to do at this point. I've went into diagnostic mode (##778) but I'm completely lost as to what I'm looking for that controls my connection to 4g.

If anyone has anything they might be able to offer me as to help my situation I would be so greatful. This phone on 3g sucks really bad.
[HTC Droid DNA] bballboy32591:
I'm not sure if this will work but you can try using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.andirc.lteonfoff

Then set your preferred network type to CDMA/EvDo/GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto
[HTC Droid DNA] BotsOne:
At this point there's really no way your radio could have been touched. The only way we can even flash a radio right now is through an RUU and I'm pretty sure you can't flash the wrong RUU. The problem is most likely either a software issue somewhere, or perhaps something on verizon's end that got messed up.

What rom are you running? There is an option in viper rom to access HTC's "hidden" menu which has a "select network type" dropdown. I'm thinking that may be what got messed up. I know there's a number you can dial to access said menu on other roms, but I have no idea what the number is.

If you are on viper go into venom tweaks -> misc -> phone info to find that dropdown. If you aren't on viper it may be worth it to flash it and see if that does the trick. I don't know what else to suggest. I would start there.

EDIT: didn't see the post above me but that app brings you to the menu I'm talking about. Not sure if it will work on the DNA though. Also, I have a buddy that was messing around a bunch with his phone and was having the same symptoms and he said he had to RUU and it was fixed.

So I'd say first, try to get to that menu^^^ either with that app or through viperRom, and if that doesn't work flash the RUU
[HTC Droid DNA] Cerides:
I would flash dsb's stock kernel boot.img and modules package.
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
Hey I just wanted to say I fell into the same issue. I wanted to try it and flashed the global Rom and wasnt getting anywhere with it :banghead: I RUU'd back and never had 4g again, even after countless attempts and apps and mods... I got a CLNR from VZW and its been going good. I either blame my stupidity or the fault of the phone since I was having issues with the SIM card not being read at random times. Hope this helps.
[HTC Droid DNA] uppon2:
I know this might sound stupid but are you sure the last ROM you flashed has the "4G" icon in the drawables folder lol. It might actually be running 4G but only showing 3G. Have you actually noticed a loss of coverage and speed? You might also want to turn off your 3G functionality and see what happens

Sorry if this sounds ignorant, I'm from Australia and we have only just released 4G and it is not that much better yet until it is covering the population
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
Hey just to comment on this regardless if it was directed to me or not. When I was going through this problem with no 4g I reverted back to original RUU... So at that time it was a stock image. I even went as far as flashing the stock/rooted flashable obtained through here. Still no good. Speed test results came back with evdo rev 0 speed of approx. 1.3mbps down and approx .60kbps upload all the time.. I even switched the SIM into another DNA and got 4g... This was definately device issue... Hard to say if it was due to my curiosity or device was a defect with the SIM card no reading st various times.
[HTC Droid DNA] Shamrock13:
So how did you get 4G working? I fell into this issue yesterday. I lost 4G altogether. I was able at one point to switch it over to LTE only, but since yesterday afternoon, I haven't been able to at all. I'm currently stuck on 4G and every time I switch it to LTE only, it just gives me an X with the signal bars. I've had 4G in 100% of my area, but I cannot get it to swap back.

I'm getting so frustrated. I tried my SIM in my Nexus, and it, of course, connected to 4G fine.
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
Do you mean your stuck in 3g? If so the only way I was able to get this to work was go through troubleshooting with VZW and get a replacement device and claim it was defective.
[HTC Droid DNA] Shamrock13:
Yep. I'm completely stuck in 3G. I cannot get it to switch out of 3G at all. The only thing I haven't tried is a brand new SIM card. :/
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
Are you using *#*#4636#*#* or an app to change to LTE only? I would suggest to change it to the correct one that is mentioned from someone else a couple of posts up.
[HTC Droid DNA] Shamrock13:
I was using that app the user posted for the Thunderbolt. It accesses the same hidden menu. I've been switching it via that app, and it will not connect to 4G at all. Right now it's just sitting there with full bars but no 3G or 4G symbol.

---------- Post added at 11:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:30 AM ----------

Yep. It just stays on 3G. I've taken the SIM out multiple times. I've restarted the phone at least 20 times within the past 1.5 days. I have changed the radio settings. I cannot get it to go to 4G at all. :l

I swapped the SIM to the Nexus to test it and see if I have 4G, and I definitely do. I checked the VZW site to see if it pulled up the Nexus. It did. When I swapped the SIM back to the DNA, it still shows the Nexus. This was yesterday at probably 5 PM when I tried the switch.. :l
[HTC Droid DNA] kraziekc:
I would get the phone relocked, RUU'd back to factory and ask for a replacement. Mention that its not the SIM card because you already replaced it. Ask for a replacement.
